CookieAlert Plugin
CookieAlert displays a cookie/privacy notice. Enabling a banner alone does not make a site legally compliant or prevent optional trackers from loading before consent.
- Inventory cookies, analytics, advertising, embedded players and third-party services actually used.
- Obtain appropriate privacy/legal advice for the regions you serve.
- Configure the notice in plain language with links to the current privacy/cookie policy.
- Test accept/reject/change-choice behavior while signed out and after clearing site data.
- Confirm optional scripts respect the intended choice, not merely that the banner disappears.
Do not claim “we use no cookies” without testing the complete site and embedded third parties. Keep a way for visitors to revisit their preference.
| Plugin | Added value |
|---|---|
| SignUpAgreement | Shows the site's agreement during registration. |
| Customize | Adds branding, footer, and description controls. |
| LoginControl | Adds extra controls to the sign-in process. |
Why does the notice reappear? The browser may have cleared or blocked the preference cookie, or the notice version/domain changed.
Does clicking Reject stop every optional tracker? Only if the site is configured to delay/disable those scripts. Test network requests, not just the banner.
